Particle settling through density stratified fluids experience hydrodynamic interactions that can significantly alter their behavior with respect to their homogeneous fluids counterpart. These are ultimately due to the complex interplay between diffusion, advection, and geometry (through physical boundary conditions). This talk will review results from an ongoing investigation of the relative and overall importance of some newly identified mechanisms that govern the settling and aggregation behavior of particles under different conditions. Preliminary water column sampling data from a field experiment in the Gokyo lake II and IV, Sagarmatha National Park, will be presented.
